Bayern Munich forward Thomas Muller has refused to discuss speculation linking him with a move to Manchester United.

The 26-year-old was strongly linked with United throughout the summer but the move failed to materialise and Muller stayed at the Allianz Arena.

Bayern chief Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has since called on United to desist with their 'useless' enquiries over Muller, insisting the 26-year-old is not for sale.

Indeed, Rummenigge said recently that the forward represents the heart of Bayern Munich and would never be sold, but the player was less forthright about his future.

"I heard what Rummenigge said and it’s nice for me to hear it," Muller told The Mail on Sunday.

"There are never any guarantees in football but I do have a four-year contract and when I go on the pitch and hear fans shout my name, that’s something special."

Guardiola confirmed in September that United had pursued a number of Bayern players, including Muller, but when pushed about the possibilty of a move to England's top flight, Muller declined to comment.

"The club, as Rummenigge showed, denied it straight away, so it’s not up for discussion," he added.

Muller signed a contract extension at Bayern last year which is set to keep him at the Allianz Arena until the summer of 2019.
